Model-based Comparisons of the Abundance Dynamics of Bacterial Communities in Two Lakes.
Article in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Lake Lanier (Georgia, USA) is home to more than 11,000 microbial Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs), many of which exhibit clear annual abundance patterns. To assess the dynamics of this microbial community, we collected time series data of 16S and 18S rRNA gene sequences, recovered from 29 planktonic shotgun metagenomic datasets. Based on these data, we constructed a dynamic mathematical model of bacterial interactions in the lake and used it to analyze changes in the abundances of OTUs. The model accounts for interactions among 14 sub-communities (SCs), which are composed of OTUs blooming at the same time of the year, and three environmental factors. It captures the seasonal variations in abundances of the SCs quite well. Simulation results suggest that changes in water temperature affect the various SCs differentially and that the timing of perturbations is critical. We compared the model results with published results from Lake Mendota (Wisconsin, USA). These comparative analyses between lakes in two very different geographical locations revealed substantially more cooperation and less competition among species in the warmer Lake Lanier than in Lake Mendota.
